The e-visa lists a gate that is not on my approval. Is that a problem?

I listed a border gate on the application, but my visa does not show one. Is that fine?

Look at the visa PDF itself. The entry gate is printed on the visa, and what matters is what the visa shows, not what you remember typing. If no gate shows, check that you have the final approved PDF and not the receipt or the application summary.

If the visa really has no entry gate, check the status on evisa.gov.vn with your registration code. The portal view and the PDF should agree.

Travelers often point out that Google says you can enter through multiple gates. Treat that with caution, since that is not an official statement of how your visa will be read. Officers at the gate rely on what is on the visa.

If the gate is missing or wrong, contact the Immigration Department at foreigners@immigration.gov.vn, or apply for a new one. For the entry points the system accepts, see our Vietnam e-visa guide, and you can apply with us if you need a corrected visa.
